Hey Omar & Blue!

I'm using Sonar 6.21, so I hope you are using at least the same, or above?

Remember, this process will only work accurately if your audio/loop/loopz
are exact loopz, I mean that if you were to lay them end to end they would
playback in time...

Here goes:

1. Go in to the clips frame by pressing ctrl + down arrow.

2. Press ALT plus enter, this'll select the audio.

 3. Press F4, and arrow to the second option, which is:
"Open the clips properties dialogue for the currently selected clip..."

4. You should land in the general tab, for the "name" dialogue box for the
selected audio/clip.
Shift tab once and you should here, quote General Tab quote.
6. Now, either cursor once right, or ctrl tab, and you'll be in the, quote
Audio Stretching Tab quote.

7. Tab once, and you'll here, "Groove-clip enable looping, check box not
checked.
If you tab again, or cursor down once, you'll here, "Groove-clips stretch to
project tempo check box not checked etc."

8. Check using the space bar, the first option, quote groove-clips enable
looping check box not checked quote, and press enter.

9. Now, press ctrl +up arrow to leave the "clips properties" dialogue box,
and you should be good to rock!

This will fit your audio to the tracks tempo.

Alternatively, if you've got an un-acidized  loop, and you know its actual
tempo/bpm, and you wanna make it 'elastic', in other words, stretch to fit
any tempo, then follow the above procedure, but, when you get to the quote
Audio Stretching Tab quote, check the second option, quote groove-clip
stretch to project tempo quote, and, eureka!

Note:

I spent the best part of a day and a half trying to work out how to do this
from the CT manual, and I have to say that I think the manual is a big pile
of "shift", to paraphrase, Dave Scrimenti, I can't understand why it is
written so bloody badly...
I'm not dyslexic, but reading that comedy of horrors made me feel incredibly
so...

Anyway, if this don't work, sue me, it worx for me, and I ain't heard any
other bod trying to explain the procedure, or even attempt to, so best of
luck and rock-on!

Laters

Mike

Ok, I got how to access it, but how do you make it sync with the tempo
of the rest of the project?
